March 25, 2023 More of Sedona, did some knee high river/creek crossings, amazing views, and made sure our last ride was our longest yet. Rented the Juliana Furtado, a mullet ride, 29’ in the front, 27.5’ in the back. I desperately wanted to love her but it wasn’t the one. I couldn’t clear nearly as much ascents because I kept hitting my pedals, the seat was noticeably uncomfortable, and the flip switch shocks was difficult for me to get used to. I did love how light she was and how I flew down Canyon of Fools! Ah, mullets and maybe even Juliana’s are not the bike for me, this makes me so sad! #sad #julianabikes #notamatch #otherbikesinthesea #sedona #mtb #mountainbike #mountainbikelifestyle #roadtrip #rivercrossing #sedonaarizona #doggiedaycareforthewin (at Sedona, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRti_bN6Dd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

March 24, 2023 Said goodbye to the friends and Moab, Utah, and drove through sun, snow, hail, clouds and rerouted to get to Sedona, Arizona. Same but different riding terrain, totally well worth the 6.5 hour drive here. Demo’d the Pivot Trail 429, with those 29’ wheels. She’s a heavier bike with wider and thicker handlebars than I’m used to but the smooth downhills make for fun rolling ledges and steps and chunky bits and the uphill I’m able to climb over and floss through most of the ascents. Def a fun little bike. #pivotcycles #pivotbikes #mountainbike #mtblife #mtblifestyle #sedona #sedonaarizona #chickenpoint #20kmloop #29inchwheels #roadtrip #dogdaycareforthewin #recalculating (at Sedona, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqNvI_kLDWW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

March 21, 2023 Last full day at Moab, almost let the wind take us down, or sideways and up for that matter. #navajorockstrails #windy #myearshurt #socold #windchillfactor #morebonding #miltburger #miltburgersforthewin #justtwomoreminutes #nowontosedona #isthatsnowisee #rockriding #mountainbiking #myhipshurt #mtb #moab #mountainbike (at Navajo Rocks Mountain Bike Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqKNdssOIoC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

March 21, 2023 A couple of notes: 1. If the only car in the parking lot is a BC plate too, perhaps it’s not the right time to ride. 2. Call a local bike shop ahead of travelling 2 hours to destination 3. Look up bike trail reports before hand 4. Desert mud is clay. #fruita #margaritas #doh #noridingtoday #claymudmasksforbikes #roadtrip #zippitydoodah #nogo #carwashforthewin #bonding (at Fruita, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqGOfAaJrxX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My beautiful, smart, playful Bosco. You left me 6 months ago today. The 8th day of every month I am reminded of that day I never got to say goodbye. I love you so much my little man. I miss your voice the most. (at Rainbow Bridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpi41e6PCly/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Found this new gem, opps, I meant gym. Same informed coaches, same name, same strength philosophy, but new logo, new equipment, better music, less ego, and the cutest four legged warm up trainer! A new big little happy space. @kfitconditioning #workout #gym #gymgirl #train #strong #perimenopauselikeaboss #strengthtraining #ifeelstrongagain #tighthipflexors #happyspaces #nomirrorshere #mentalhealth #mentalhealthsupport #kfit (at KFit Conditioning) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpeCTqFpvIU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Have you ever tried to keep a playful 7 month puppy calm and on home arrest? Yeah, hard work. Please don’t open your stitches or get an infection!! I am sorry to my neighbours, there’s a lot of frustrated barking going on here! 14 days of this?

Social media made me try it and it’s so delicious that I had to post about it for the ig. Next time you are digging into your favourite ramen cup add cheese as a topper and when you finish eating all the noodles mix an egg into the brothy leftovers for yummy savoury egg custard!

It has been so long since I’ve attended a home hosted bridal shower! Homemade baking, fancy charcuterie boards, fresh smoked salmon, crafted pom felted decorations, and games! All the fun games! It was so amazing to spend time with friends I haven’t seen in years to celebrate our beautiful @cdilucca and her upcoming nuptials!

Leroy and I went on a little winter morning walk around the lake today. It’s been 167 days since Bosco left me, and today Leroy wore his hand me down plaid and listened to stories about Bosco falling off the paddleboard and enjoying chasing after the ball here at this same lake. Leroy and Bosco, so different yet so similar. 🥹 (at Durrance Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co_KkcBpM7A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Leroy and I hosted a little karaoke dinner party with the new friends we made from spin class. The row house hasn’t seen that many people at once for years, it was nice to be hosting again. I am def my parents’ daughter, fretting there won’t be enough food, then pulling out old take out containers to send everyone home with leftovers. Honestly, the $13 Bluetooth microphone is hours of fun. Just another stroke swimming to the lighter shallow side. (at Esquimalt) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3kAJELHtb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am finally coming out of that dark foggy deep end. I’m lucky to have the wisdom and honesty from these three women. From visiting me in London during my divorce, to letting me crash and travel with them in Argentina, to making me get out of bed with a tea waiting, to helping me commemorate Bosco and road trips to visit and pick up Leroy. #brunchingbeauties (at Spinnakers Brewpub) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co0YYDgSVkx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I pulled something in my left hip and now I walk, bike, sit, spin, workout… everything, in twingy pain. Point? Big love for my four legged 20 pound weight and @kfitconditioning for helping me work out while working through the injury. And for the ig mention. If you need us, we will be taking this long weekend to take a break from our favourite physical hobbies and working on brunching, karaok-ing, and spa-ing.
